The Castle is situated 950m (10min walk) to Goolwa Surf Beach, and is the perfect spot for your next family beach getaway. This large two-storey holiday home sleeps up to 14 guests, has 2 separate living spaces, plus a large north-facing deck with BBQ, table & chairs. Upstairs has open plan kitchen, dining and living area with a TV, DVD and stereo, and r/c air conditioning. Large windows provide panoramic views & access to the deck. Accommodation on this floor includes two queen bedrooms, bathroom & separate toilet. Downstairs are a further two bedrooms, which include a double bed, 3 bunks & 2 single beds. There is also a roomy living space with TV with stereo sound & DVD player, a kitchenette, bathroom/laundry with a washing machine & separate toilet. All beds and bathrooms are made up with fresh linen and towels. Outside offers off-street parking for 4 or 5 cars, as well as a fully fenced back garden. The large front lawn is also fully fenced, providing plenty of play space for everyone. The Castle is the perfect spot for family holidays including your family dog. With the large, fully fenced front & back yards, your dog is welcome at the Castle.
I am Nerissa. I love working in the travel/accommodation industry. I have recently taken over management of The Castle at Goolwa Beach because of my love for the industry. I also manage another three holiday homes in other locations including Glenelg Adelaide, Port Lincoln and Tumby Bay on the Eyre Peninsula. All seaside locations. I trust that I can help to make your holiday an enjoyable one!
The Fleurieu Peninsula is a beautiful spot for a holiday. Just 950m from The Castle is Goolwa Surf Beach and a stunning coastline from Goolwa to Encounter Bay. Considered as Adelaide's playground, the region has many cafes and restaurants along with wineries/cellar doors and breweries including The Steam Exchange Brewery in Goolwa. The closest cafe is Bombora Cafe right on Goolwa Beach. If you are around for the 1st or 3rd Sunday of the month the Goolwa Wharf Markets are on. The Goolwa Animal Farm is only about 7.7km away plus theres fishing, swimming, snorkelling, sailing, scuba, boating, surf lessons, whale watching, swimming with blue fin tuna and more. I don't think you will run out of things to see and do in the beautiful part of South Australia.
